Noting the flames around her, Keila quickly wrapped herself around Seyla tighter. "You can control your fire.. I know you can.. you can do this.." she closed her eyes again, hearing Kurai call out to them and even though it seemed almost impossible in the state she was in, her mind clicked with his. She was met by even more fear, anxienty. Blinking, she kept her head held high and she looked out to Kurai, trying not to focus on the darkness. It felt like she was falling...

Rai walked by the church and looked at it. he had never had any faith for church or anything like it. His clothing had changed sicne sitting at the pond. He wore very alrge, baggy black pants that concealed his legs and feet completely. He then wore a black T-shirt witha large balck hoodie over it.
"I wonder what it's like in there"
He started to walk away when he choose to turn around. He entered the building quietly, looking at a few people praying. He sighed as he took a seat quietly and closed his eyes, resting. It was big and beautiful in there but that wasn't going to suddenly make him have faith.

Seyla felt Keila wrap her arms around her tightly. keila... that didn't stop much though. There were still the flames blazing everywhere and Keila was there. Keila..it wasn't just Seyla's life that was at stake now, Keila's was too. And then she heard the call of someone's voice. His voice. It was Kurai. Kurai! Seyla picked her head up to see him on the other side of the flames. "KURAI!" she cried. Her voice was hoarse from all of her screams and she was still crying. But then there was another who had ripped Keila from her. She thought it was her inner self and snapped only to find a wall blocking her from the others. "You're not going to help her." It was then that she realized that she was on her own.

Daz ran to the sides of those who had passed out pulling his first aid out quickly as he checked there vitals and put them into the recovery position. "oh dear...I think this lot are trapped into there own minds...if it was me I would get lost in the emptiness but I am not thinking they are so lucky. Maybe I can still help." His first attempt involved testing out a hypoallergenic smelling salt that he bought hopping the smell would wake them. "it's a long shot but you never know." Daz grumbled.

"Seyla!!" she yelled out, immediately feeling like she would tumble through the darkness. Trying to calm her own self, Keila began to almost hyperventilate and then she looked over to Ky, wondering where he had come from and noted the fire still around her, preventing her from coming in contact with anyone else. Kurai... her eyes began to water. I'm scared..
((ahh.. getting kicked off. Night. ;-; ))

Kurai made a wild rush planning to overcome the sea of flames with his speed but found himself slamming straight into a giant black wall. "gah!" Kurai fell backwards straight onto his back.
You're not going to help her. came the voice of a frightning familiar person. Kurai quickly shot around and saw himself staring straight at Ky, his old enternal rival and friend.
"KY! What the hell do you think your doing!!!" Kurai yelled out and then turned back to the wall. "Don't you see that gurl Seyla is in trouble!? We have to help!" Kurai then threw forward his arm and extended his palm out. This was his stance to summon a flame. but to his suprise. He couldn't summon it out. Kurai looked at his hand and shook it.
"What the..." Kurai looked at his hand angrily
he then suddenly rubbed his nose.
"why does my nose feel funny..."

Daz soon realized his smelling salt weren't doing enough. "Ok no good but I am not finished yet." He said as he grabbed some bandages dipping it in near by holy water. "whether or not this stuff works isn't the point I am just hopping I can cool you three down you lot seem to be running a fever." He said as he placed the bandages on there foreheads.

tch, you're as short sighted as ever I see, Kurai
Ky, of course, had a good reason for what he was doing. He had a good reason for everything he did, but that didn't mean Kurai needed to know about it. With another perfunctory wave of his hand, a giant steel cage materialized from above and dropped down upon Kurai and Keila with a cacophonous crash. Ky walked towards them, slowly, like a vulture circling its prey.
"How do you think you can even come close to helping her when you can't even get past me? Use your head Kurai, just once. Why is it that I can summon walls and cages?"
Not waiting for an answer, Ky disappeared, rematerializing right in front of Kurai.
"It's because we are in that girl's mind. We are no longer constrained by the limitations of our physical bodies. We can do anything we want. Anything."
To demonstrate, Ky held his hand out. Suddenly his arm burst into flames. His brow creasing with concentration, Ky closed his hand into a fist. The flames danced around his arm, then suddenly swept towards his hand, materializing in a giant flaming sword.
"Look familiar? You can do this too Kurai. You can do anything here. All you need to do is wish for it hard enough. All you need is the willpower to make it so."
Although Ky was speaking directly at Kurai, in truth he was speaking for Seyla's sake. She was the one who needed to overcome the darkness. She was the one who needed to defeat her fears and apprehensions and release herself from this prison of the damned. She had everything she needed but she wasn't using it. Why? Because she was afraid. In the mind, will controlled everything. All Seyla needed to defeat the darkness was to find the will to do so. But until she did, Ky was bent on keeping Kurai and Seyla away from her.

Daz became worried. He barely got a twitch for the smelling salt and the water wasn't cooling them down much. "Ok lets try something else." Daz said standing up and un hilting his plain wooden staff from his back. He spun it slightly and a bright white blue light rained in droplets upon them. "Not the best healing spell but it should give them all an energy boost. But there must be something else I can do." Daz said looking in his first aid kit for ideas.

Crys walked into the chamber, so silently that she almost appeared to be another one of the shadows that draped the room. She walked over to where Daz was valiantly trying to help the four, seemingly unconcsious bodies.
"You can''t help them. Once one goes within the soul, only they can bring themselves out again. Your efforts are noble, but useless I''m afraid."

She was now angry. Numerous amounts of curse words could be heard as she pounded and punched against the wall. Her voice seemed to carry on forever, as if a reminder that she was in neverending darkness. Her hands now bled just like they would in the real world. She felt well horrible all of the burns were painful leaving her to double over in pain ever now and then.
During one of these recovery moments she heard the new comer. Kurai seemed to be arguing with him as if angered by his decision. But that wasn't what caught her attention. She covered her ears from the sound of a cage coming crashing down. What was going on over there? This mind was a different reality...she could defy the rules of the real world. She could do anything here...She had started to when she stopped the flames from burning her, so why couldn't she stop her inner self.
Growing angered once more, but this time with much more confidence and detemination she used her mind to shatter the tall walls that confined her. In the distance she could see the glow that was her inner self. She was probably laughing thinking about how pathetic Seyla had been. Well Seyla was about to show her! She dashed over towards the light, it growing closer with each stride. Her hands now ignited with flames. It wasn't far now. As she approached her inner self spun around. Tackling her to the ground, Seyla brought her flaming hands around her throat.
"This is my mind! You hear that! You can't control me! No you can't stop me! I won't let you win!" she declared. Her eyes had since turned golden as if they too were on fire. Her inner self seemed to panic, as if she had never expected this. By now a large ring of fire had appeared around both of them. How appropriate it was. At the sound of her words her inner self seemed to cower and whimper. Seyla was scaring her, she was taking control.
"go away." she said, at first it was quiet yet stern as well. Nothing happened.
"GO AWAY!" she screamed at the top of her lungs. It seemed that this scared her enough that she disappeared leaving Seyla to fall on the floor exhausted. Now that she had won, at least for now, the whole area seemed to slowly brighten. No longer was it pure and infinite darkness. No instead everything was now lit up and well white.

"My life story...but it doesn't hurt ether so I am not giving up." Daz said as he found a note book and pencil with a light in his first aid kit encase it was to dark and you needed to remember what you had tried. "Maybe I can give them A lighthouse for a way back home....yeah that even sound lame to me." Daz admitted as he gently pulled back there eye lids and shown the little pen light in there eyes. "hello is anybody in there, or is this place for rent?" Daz joked to lighten the mood of the the situation.

Kurai quickly clenched his hand into a fist seeing he wasn't able to summon a flame, he then quickly launched a punch twoards the large black wall. "What the hell are you doing KY!?" Kurai yelled out as he felt pain rush through his hand. He then decided Ky need a share of this pain and quickly turn to him and rose up his fist. He then dashed twoards him. Unfourtantly this path was cut off with a cage dropping around him and Keila.
"what the.." Kurai looked up at the dark black cage and grabbed the bars. Kurai then had no choice but to stand still trapped and listen to Ky. how can he control these objects? maybe.. the dark energy around from this place? Kurai thought. Kurai then heard his answer and shot back.
Thats why Susie taught me to meditate like this? cause there is no limitations like in the real world? and that i could try summoning a flame without the real training? Kurai was shocked by his relization and then saw Ky summon a similiar flamming sword just like his.
"So your saying we can do anything in this world as long as we concentrate huh?" Kurai smirked and then looked at Kaite who seemingly was shocked and fearful of this area. Kurai must admit he too was afraid of this unfamiliar dark aura about him.
"Why aren't you telling this to Seyla!" Kurai yelled out and shook the black bars furiously. "lets test this damn theory neways... break damn you bars!!!" Kurai closed his eyes shut and tried to concentrate on breaking bars. But as he strained the bars just let out a small creak. Kurai quickly fell to exhaustion and shut fell against the bars.
".... stupid.." kurai muttered and at that second a blast of pure light came from over the black wall shattering it into tiny black pieces and dissolved. The cage however remained. Kurai turned over to the other side of the cage and stared out and saw Seyla grabbing her other self with flamming hands.
"Seyla?" Kurai whispered.

"Maybe not." Daz said blandly as the light as well had no effect. He stated to cast random healing spells to try and strengthen them while he though of a way to get them to awaken. "Normally noting wake me but my own alarm clock but I don't know where you guys keep yours." sweatdrop Daz said half joking.

Crys moved to one of the pews and seated herself. This, medic, seemed to be trying everything in his healing arsenal to wake the four, even cracking a few jokes while he was doing so. In her past life, Crys thought, she probably would have been amused and impressed by his efforts, but that life was over.
******
Still in Seyla's mind, Ky threw his arm up to protect his eyes as the darkness shattered and brilliant light flooded the area. The wall Ky had erected suddenly came crashing down, large chunks bouncing off the steel cage. A large slab was falling directly towards Ky. Taking the flaming sword in both hands, Ky hurled it at the slab, embedding the sword deep within it. Taking both hands, Ky threw them to the sides, as if ripping some imaginary object apart. The sword exploded in a brilliant flash, vaporizing the slab and leaving nothing left but ashes. Noting where Kurai was looking, Ky move his eyes in that direction until he saw the girl. She was on the ground, panting, exhasted, victorious.
Well that was quick
Although his face remained as impassive as ever, Ky was much surprised that this tentative little girl had defeated her darker self so quickly. There was potential in her. In any case, there was nothing left to do hear. Raising one hand, Ky snapped his fingers and the cage disappeared. He was just about to return to his normal body when a second thought stopped him.
I doubt Kurai would be able to figure out how to get out of this place by himself. Guess I better stick around....
